Lovullo should be demoted to bench coach. If Hazen is that Top 2/3 GM mentioned in previous posts, then he needs to go out and get a championship manager for this team. Unfortunately, I think Hazen more closely resembles MO Mozeliak in St. Louis - and MO has destroyed that once proud franchise.

Mets winning as Brewers are resting up for the playoffs. Really need both Mets and Braves to lose today (if the DBacks can hold on to a lead on a Sunday (unlike last week)) for the DBacks to have a chance at not playing golf tomorrow or Tuesday. Torey to bench coach, please.

Even if the scores hold as they are right now (DBacks winning, Mets winning, Braves losing), the only way the DBacks can back into a playoff spot is if the Mets sweep the Braves or the Braves sweep the Mets tomorrow in the make up doubleheader. If they split, all three teams would finish at 89-73 - and the Mets and Braves own tiebreakers over the DBacks. And that is if today's scores hold. Wow. That loss at Milwaukee last week was the final nail in the coffin it appears. That set up a lackluster 2-4 final homestand (if the DBacks win today) to end the lost season.

Called it when it happened

Torey should be fired for that game alone

Yes he should. Or at least be demoted to bench coach. He seems suited to that role since he wants to be everyone's buddy. Wonder if he'll cry at the press conference today when someone brings up the Milwaukee game last Sunday and how that tanked the season for the DBacks. We know that the two NL East teams will collude on the doubleheader and ensure a split. That shuts out the DBacks.
